Is enucleation followed by peripheral ostectomy and Carnoy's solution application an adequate treatment for Odontogenic keratocyst? A case series with up to five years of follow up / A enucleação seguida da osteotomia periférica e a aplicação de solução de Carnoy é um tratamento adequado para o ceratocisto odontogênico? Uma série de casos com acompanhamento de até cinco anos

Objective: To evaluate the treatment outcome of enucleation and peripheral ostectomy with the use of Carnoy's solution for management of Odontogenic keratocyst. Material and Methods: 17 patients with OKC who reported from 2011 to 2015 were included. All the cases were treated by enucleation and peripheral ostectomy of 0.5mm followed by Carnoy's solution cauterization for 4 minutes. All patients were followed up for 4-5 years. Results: All the cases were followed-up by using serial panoramic radiography and clinical evaluation at regular intervals. No recurrence was reported in any of the cases. Conclusion: Treatment of Odontogenic keratocyst by enucleation and 0.5mm of peripheral ostectomy, followed by Carnoy's solution cauterization for 4 minutes is an effective treatment with zero recurrence rates for five years of follow-up (AU)

Use of Foley's catheter as a tourniquet for the management of vascular lesion of lip in Mowat-Wilson syndrome

Background: Vascular malformation of lower lip is a very rare anomaly. The lesion leads to facial asymmetry, difficulty in speech and eating and drooling of saliva. Treatment goals include symmetrical reconstruction of the lip with minimal scarring, provide adequate bulk for the reconstruction of vermillion, in toto removal of the lesion and prevent recurrence. The most common complication during surgical removal of these lesions includes blood loss and profuse bleeding which leads to poor visibility, increased operation time and postoperative requirement of blood transfusion. Therefore, the use of sclerosing agent is recommended before surgical removal. This may help in decreasing bleeding during surgery but not in all cases. Case Report: Here, we report the use of Foley's catheter for the management of a high flow lesion of lower lip in a 12-year-old patient diagnosed with Mowat-Wilson syndrome. This technique helped in providing bloodless field which lead to minimal blood loss and good visibility intraoperatively.
